Act NOW!
Rich Communication 2010. 17/Nov/2010 Juan Mateu
Thinking in markets and positioning
Ford Ferrari
Zara Channel
Ummmhhh ?-)
Got the point ?
YES !!!
Henry Ford make feasible the “driving experience”
for the masses
Amancio Ortega make affordable the fashion clothes to the masses
While others (Ferrari & Channel) were focused in
delivering the “best” only to a few
…historically Ford and Zara (Inditex) made more
revenues and earnings
Taking care of
“the most”
And had a role transformating the world &
improving the lifestyle
With millions of customers and 100%
penetration
Carriers must take care of “the most”
Delight the masses
And it will be monetized
when got the customers in love
again with carriers
Go back to our problem
Communications ?
A real need,
Make life easier
Not for everybody :-(
People with access to
rich devices
People can’t
affordvs
People able to learn
the use
vs
People can’t learn complex services
How to do it?
APPS ?????
1 App 1 CASE
Means Nightmare
Few devices can store 1000 apps
Very few want to install and learn
1000 apps
And also, apps are controled by device supplier
My god !!!
could the issue be solved?
Let’s try !
think
The past…
Uuummmhh ?-)
Do you remember the SMS story ?
1 thing to learn
Lots of things could be done
•Text people•Send opinion to TV•Vote•Buy a ringtone•Receive alerts
One thing to be learnt
Lots of things to be done
Same way to communicate with people and with
services
Everybody learnt it
Everybody used it
And it really matters now ?
YES
Now, rich and multidevice
mobility
RCS combining known features
from OTTs
Instant MessagingPresence
File TransferVideoShare
What else is needed for RCS case?
Ubiquity, access from different devices
covering all screens and device tiers
Openness, easy to create use cases on
top -> APIs
Then…ONLY 1 APP
The phonebook
Also 1 experience to learn, 1000 use cases
to user ?
YES
WOW
And then …
Could be successfull as
SMS?
YES, if “open” as SMS
Simple & powerful & for everybody
And about us, Solaiemes ?
Solaiemes is working on that
regarding RCS openness, the platform to create
use cases on top
RCS Solution Gateway
Opening RCS access with API’s as it was done with SMS in the past
RCS Solution Gateway
Solaiemes aims to use RCS as a common framework to create user-IT-system easy interaction being the IT System 3rd parties:

Social Media Interaction
•Twitter interaction http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXgMqW-CEcc
…and regarding RCS ubiquity, the platform to
put easily RCS in all screens
RCS Thin/Web Client Server
How to do RCS the ubiquitious carrier communicator?
Combining “Cloud Communication” with javascript customized user
interfaces !!!
RCS Thin/Web Client Server
• For devices with no full computing capabilities (TV, STB) or for having access to RCS trough Web Browser it is needed a way to split the RCS client in 2 sides:
1. Server side hosting the Telco protocol (SIP, MSRP, XDM, etc) cloud based in a shared platform
2. Web GUI or TV/STB widget based on javascript, to create the user experience without the need of installing apps or clients.
• Different “look & feel” RCS “iframes” can be provided on demand. Flexibility.
• It mades RCS as a pure ubiquitous communicator

Summarizing
Is RCS real?
YES !!!
Is it coming soon ?
The technology works, carriers should deploy :-)
Last chance of carriers
To keep a role
A good opportunity for
ecosystem
Extra fee above flat rate for data is the
only possible revenue?
NO !!!
Which more then?
Selling & provisionating “service user” SIP
URI’s…Addressing the long tail
Hosting the “on top of RCS” services and the
API access
“premium usernames” for solution
developers…as [email protected] …
Revenue sharing for “on top of RCS” paying
solutions as in the past the SMS premium
Cloud private storage of personal RCS communications
Dedicated support and services to high
transaction “service users” as banks
And sure…someone will find additional revenue
streams
WOW, a huge opportunity for carriers then.
YES, but carriers may act, launch NOW!!
….and launch RCS ubiquitous and open from the beginning...
That’s the Value
Time is Gold
